Description

Handling hard link using Win32 API. [NTFS only]

Note: You should worry about file system type when use this module's function in your application:

  • NTFS only supprts this functionality.
  • ReFS doesn't support hard link currently.

c_CreateHardLink

Arguments

:: LPCTSTR

Hard link name
-> LPCTSTR

Target file path
-> LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES

This parameter is reserved. You should pass just nullPtr.
-> IO BOOL

createHardLink

Arguments

:: FilePath

Target file path
-> FilePath

Hard link name
-> IO ()

NOTE: createHardLink is flipped arguments to provide compatiblity for Unix.

If you want to create hard link by Windows way, use createHardLink' instead.

createHardLink'

Arguments

:: FilePath

Hard link name
-> FilePath

Target file path
-> IO ()
